posted on by Egan Loo
The wraparound jacket band on the fourth volume of Masahiro Itosugi's Uwa-koi manga announced on Friday that a live-action adaptation has been green-lit. Japanese company Gosent is presenting this production by SPO Entertainment (Antique Bakery, Ai Mai Mi). The announcement does not specify the adaptation's medium, but more information will be announced in the manga's current home, Shonengahosha's Young King magazine.
The "tension-filled non-stop triangle love story" follows Yuno and Yukiteru, Yuno's childhood friend who lives with her. They are the official "best couple" of their school. However, Yuno's beautiful close friend Rena pursues Yukiteru, leading to a "ruinous love triangle."
Itosugi launched the manga in Monthly Young King magazine in 2011, but moved it to the main Young King magazine when Monthly Young King ceased publication.
Itosugi's adult romance manga Aki Sora has received two original video animation adaptations. Itosugi also wrote the story and drew the art for the manga A Wish of My Sister.
